When PAX East begins, which is from March 23-26th this year, I get tons of emails from developers about their upcoming games and if I’m interested in trying them out. I often opt to do a blog post of my review but I would like to do some Youtube videos which I export from my […]
The 90s were so good to me when it came to video games. I was born in the 80s, but grew up in the 90s and got to experience the early rise of gaming consles. The NES, SNES and SEGA Genesis were taking the USA by storm and you weren’t the “cool kid” if you […]
There’s nothing like a cup of coffee, lo-fi music, and some time to relax and unwind. This is something I personally enjoy doing in the mornings, or at night except with no coffee. A game that puts all of this together in a rainy setting is Coffee Talk, an indie game I have had the […]
Videogames can appeal to so many demographics, hobbies, interests, and even religions.

If you’re a gamer like myself, however, you may appreciate the Final Fantasy franchise for one aspect or another, even […]
Games are an escape. Their immersive worlds and lore draw us in and comfortably hold us despite the ample adversity thrown in our path. Nearly every iteration of the Legend of Zelda (LoZ) series runs a similar narrative: you are a boy called to a task that is seemingly insurmountable at the time. With exploration […]
It has been quite a while since I did an update on the blog, including this Retro Gaming Club column. I have been very busy this summer with family, home projects, and picking up or organizing our home. There’s always a lot to do when your on vacation, but I’m glad for the downtime. Below […]
Video game conferences happen every year, all around the world. One of the biggest ones and most infamous for it’s reveals of new games and consoles has always been E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo).
